• Oh, for crying out loud: Lou Dobbs and his Fox Business Channel guests went off on Hollywood "indoctrinating a liberal agenda" on our youth - citing "The Lorax" (based on a 40-year-old Dr. Seuss book) and "The Secret World of Arrietty" (based on an even older book, and animated in Japan) as examples. [New York Daily News]
